- PayPal is a safer, simpler way to send and receive money online.
You can pay for items you buy on eBay as well as on hundreds of other leading retail websites, or you can use PayPal to send money quickly and safely to anyone with an email address.
You can pay with money held in your PayPal account balance or use another payment method such as a credit card, debit card or your bank account.
Once you sign up for a PayPal account, you just need to select PayPal as your payment method when you shop online. Websites that accept PayPal will show the PayPal logo in their checkout. You will be asked to log in to your account with your email address and password to confirm the payment. PayPal never shares your financial information with sellers or retailers.
If you receive a payment through PayPal, you will receive an email notification and the money will be credited to your PayPal account. You can then use your PayPal balance to make payments, or you can withdraw the funds to your bank account.
It’s free to sign up for a PayPal account. Fees charged are based on who you are sending funds to:
Personal payments: Payments to friends or family are free when funded by bank account or PayPal balance. If the payment is funded by credit or debit card then fee is charged to the recipient, however the sender can choose to pay this instead. Please note you must select the ‘Personal’ payment tab within the ‘Send Money’ payment flow to qualify for this rate.
Purchase payments: For payments made as a purchase of goods or services, the recipient (seller) will be charged a fee. For more information visit www.paypal.com and click on the ‘Fees’ link at the bottom of any page.

Why paypal,
I know its a pretty secure way, but there is no poker room that are taking it.
I do used moneybookers for that reason, i do like it but to transferred it in my bank in Canada, its more difficult. But MoneyBookers is very fast to deposit into the room and even receiving payments
Hopefully one day Paypal permit poker rooms
>Thanks

hey Jap, Paypal is not allowing any transactions to poker rooms anymore. This has been my main way of funding until recently. But most poker rooms can`t accept it now. I could actually do with some advice as i`m having trouble depositing anywhere at the moment. They all keep telling me to get gift cards but the ones availablle here in Florida are no good for international transactions....i don`t have a bank account at the moment either..gratefull for any tips
Japmaster
maybe you can try moneybookers?
